I think we should use iSTVAN's as the original because it IS the reason we I came up with the summing up. But I wouldn't dare to even try to edit his nice sprite. It would be his decision if he would want to change it to the ideas we've come up with.

howabout we just draw some guy painting on a canvas with a paintbrush? Only instead of.. paint he would be placing little 2D sqpaures on the canvas, creating pixelart.

not a bad Idea. although I LOVE the levitating pixels.
the guy can, like, levitate them and then shoot them at the wall, like Ryu from Street Fighter, you know.

Thanks for the inspiration.

Done in 12 minutes:



Hehe, nerds don't look good with superpowers. I don't even think that's allowed by the laws of physics.

Hey, I did it in 12 minutes. If you want an animated nerd shooting pixels you'd have to give me some time and candy.

Xion and 1ucas: Those are a couple of great characters. It'd be a cool to have a theme like a "pixel artist nerd" and work the different interpretations into a design somehow.  Hmmm.

Thanks!

I like that Idea, shark.

I'm callin' it done, mainly 'cause I suck at feet.

If anyone wants to add feet, be my guest, but this is where my work ends.

Haha! I was waiting for someone to do a joint! Niiiice.

And Xion, wicked pixelling there, dude! I don't think it would work well as a mascot for two reasons. One, its huge, and two, its far too detailed. We need something cartoonish that everyone can pixel to some extent. Gotta allow for us crappy people to participate in future collabs involving this dude.

Why do topics always die after I have posted last?

Haha. I TOTALLY forgot this topic existed! I agree, Xion's work is awesome. Far more stylish than my character, which I had also forgot about. I like that we can all have different interpretations of essentially the same idea.
